Edward Hopper

(Seated Female Nude, Rear View)
1920–1925

A pencil sketch on paper depicting a seated nude female figure viewed from the side. The figure has her back slightly turned towards the viewer, with her head turned to look over her shoulder. Her hair is shoulder-length and wavy, and she sits with one leg drawn up and the other extended, resting on the floor. The artist's signature is visible at the bottom right corner of the sketch. The paper shows signs of aging with a warm, off-white tone.
